Product Introduction
The Tire Recycling Line is a fully integrated, industrial-scale production system designed to efficiently process end-of-life tires into valuable raw materials. This automated line solves the logistical and environmental challenge of scrap tires by converting them into clean, market-ready products: rubber granules for synthetic turf and asphalt, high-quality steel scrap, and textile fiber for energy recovery.
From whole-tire feeding to final product sorting, the Tire Recycling Line orchestrates a continuous, multi-stage process of shredding, granulation, and precise separation. Engineered for maximum uptime, output purity, and operational safety, it represents the definitive capital investment for entrepreneurs and established recyclers aiming to build a sustainable, profitable business within the circular economy for rubber.

Rubber powder containing steel wire is conveyed to a magnetic separator to remove over 95% of the steel wire. The remaining powder, falling into a secondary screening machine, is then further separated. Powder meeting the required fineness enters a magnetic separator, while powder not meeting the fineness requirement continues to be ground in a mill. |

Core Technology & Process Flow
The Tire Recycling Line efficiency is derived from its sequential, automated stages:
- Whole Tire Feeding & Primary Shredding: Whole tires are fed into a heavy-duty primary shredder, which reduces them to rough 50-100mm chips, liberating the initial steel bead wires.
- Wire Extraction & Secondary Granulation: Steel wires are magnetically separated. The remaining rubber chips are conveyed to a secondary granulator, which reduces them to smaller granules (10-30mm).
- Fine Grinding & Fiber Separation: Granules are further refined in a fine mill. A combination of air classifiers and vibrating screens separates the liberated textile fiber from the rubber, producing clean rubber powder.
- Final Screening & Classification: The rubber powder is screened through precision vibrating sieves to produce finished rubber crumb in specific, customer-defined mesh sizes (e.g., 10-40 mesh).
- Automated Material Handling & Control: A central PLC controls conveyors, separators, and mills, ensuring smooth material flow, optimal process parameters, and consistent final product quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How pure are the separated materials?
A: Our multi-stage separation process ensures high purity:
Rubber Crumb: Typically >99% free of steel and fabric.
Steel Wire: Clean and bundled, ready as furnace-ready scrap.
Textile Fiber: Effectively removed and collected separately.
Q2: What is a tire recycling line, and what does it produce?
A: A tire recycling line is a complete, automated industrial system designed to process end-of-life tires into valuable raw materials. It transforms whole scrap tires into three main products: clean rubber crumb/granules (used in sports surfaces, asphalt, and molded products), high-purity steel wire, and textile fiber, supporting a circular economy for rubber.
Q3: What types of tires can your recycling line process?
A: Our Tire Recycling Line are designed to handle a wide range of tires, including:
Passenger Car Tires (PCR)
Truck and Bus Tires (TBR)
Off-the-road (OTR) tires can be processed with specific, heavier-duty configurations.
The system can typically process whole tires up to 1200mm in outer diameter.
